How to Fix If You Can’t See Online Status of Friends

If you have an iPhone, you will not need to clear cache and data on your phone. You will need to reinstall the application. When you reinstall applications on iPhone devices, you also clear and cache of them. However there is not any option for this on iOS devices at the moment.

Ensure That You Haven’t Blocked

You also need to ensure that you haven’t blocked if you can’t see online status of only one individual. To do that, go to Facebook instead of Messenger. Try look at profile page of your friend. If you can’t see her profile when you are login but can see it when you are log out. It means you have been blocked by her/him. As we have told before, this is not for those who can’t see online status of friends. This is just for those who can’t see the status for one person.
